Compile fast tracing code with OPT_FAST in single compile mode. (#2245)

Browse Source 
When using the __ALL*.cpp based single compile mode (i.e.: without
VM_PARALLEL_BUILDS), the fast path tracing code used to be included in
__Allsup.cpp, which was compiled with OPT_SLOW, severely harming tracing
performance. We now have __ALLfast.cpp and __ALLslow.cpp instead of
__ALLcls.cpp and __ALLsup.cpp, so we can compile the fast support code
with OPT_FAST as well.
